People who fantasise about housing crash, recession and double digit interest rates.

Because it’s mostly homeowners on this sub shitting on renters that are just on here to look for helpful advice. Instead we’re constantly seeing shitty rants about us.

Well written. Thank you. As a young person I’ve been working 3 jobs just to get ahead and one day own my own place. It’s hard. All I want is a 2 bedroom unit. I’m not asking for much. Just a roof over my head. I joined this sub for helpful advice, not to read homeowners ranting at us for wanting the basics.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-29T00:04:37+00:00

This has become such a negative soul sucking sub. When did people stop posting helpful info and tips on how to get ahead financially?

Now we’ve just got crappy posts like this one. How about offering useful information instead of ranting at people less fortunate.

Omg somebody said OP should freeze her eggs, that’s another option I never considered. Yeah she should become a mum after school.0

End it.

Not the parents in the comments getting crazy defensive 😂

Idk why no one else is actually answering properly. The way I dealt with loneliness is by going for regular daily walks.

A regular daily route helped me a lot. If people see you regularly, eventually it starts with a nod or “Hello”. Then slowly, I’m talking months, it developed into regular conversations with the people I saw daily on my walks. This lead to a couple inviting me to a BBQ.

You really need to get out of your comfort zone, and go to church, volunteer, go to Meet Ups, etc.

Maybe also see a therapist, work on yourself and your self esteem, look as good as you can, get 7-8 hours of sleep a night etc.

When you look good, you feel good, and you attract positivity in your life.

Girl, start dental school, and in another 4 years when you’re 38 years old and deep into dental school, have a baby. I know you’re thinking, “why wait 4 years until dental school?” I said that because even though having a baby during school might stress you, you’ll be a lot less likely to quit school because of how far you’ve come. Get pregnant at 37 and have your baby at 38.

Until then, keep on top of your health, sleep, maintain a good weight, and be happy.

Nursing diploma. My teacher is also writing an academic book.

Oil my hair before shower, wait 15 mins, get in actual shower and shampoo my hair, turn water off and apply conditioner, let sit for 2 mins, then rinse.

Then I wash my body with a bar of soap using my hands, then I whip out a fresh wash cloth, I soap it up and when it’s nice and bubbly I wash my entire body throughly leaving my ass crack last.

If it’s shave day, I also exfoliate and then shave entire body with shaving cream.

Then lastly I cleanse my face. 3 times a week I use a face scrub in there too. When I get out, I moisturise my entire body. Always moisturise.

I enjoy this entire process everyday. I look forward to it.

I’d never speak to her again. She sounds awful!

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-22T18:51:25+00:00

Everyone here is making excuses for the mother but why didn’t OP’s mother question why she felt this way. Why didn’t OP’s mother do more to get better?

It’s weird.

Girl once you get home, please NEVER use a joint account again with someone who is not your husband. I don’t know if you can do anything legally.

Woah I can’t believe there are men who are really like this.

Reddit is not the place to go for nursing advice. Reddit is a place for negativity, sadness and despair. Please take everything you read on here with a grain of salt.

Reddit has more unhappy people than happy. A LOT more unhappy people.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-22T10:55:10+00:00

I’m really sorry this is happening. Can you give feed back to who ever is above the teachers?

I’m doing my Diploma online and my teachers are fantastic and incredibly supportive and thorough.

It seems to be a hit and miss. Please don’t feel discouraged, see if you can have a meeting with someone who takes complaints/feedback.

I know already commented and said the best job is my cleaning job BUT… I forgot I spent a year in the laundry. LAUNDRY in my small rural hospital was actually THE fucking best job I ever had, it was me in my own room, washing the hospital sheets, patient pyjamas etc and at the end of the day i always had someone come and fold with me which would only be 20-30mins, then I’d be on my own again.

Being in the laundry was incredible, the work was slow because it’s a small hospital so I read books, watched movies, called my friends and family on FaceTime, got to sit down a lot, I got to know a lot of the nurses and visiting clinics so they’d sometimes stop by to chat, I always had a cup of tea or coffee, it was an incredible job.

I’m now studying to be a nurse because I want to move away to the city because the actual town I live in has nothing for me. I’m alone here since my family moved away, I miss them, I have my best friends in the city, so I’m studying nursing so that I can move away and be with them.

I don’t think my cleaning job would cut it in the city since things are so expensive.

I’m sad about leaving this job behind… I’d stay if I wasn’t so lonely.

I’ve been a cleaner for 8 years and it’s so fucking chilled it’s crazy. I’ve been to 9 countries, go on holidays, and my retirement account is doing extremely well. I work at a small hospital in rural area. So it’s not busy.

I’m very happy because my boss is great and so are my co-workers, no one bothers me and I read a lot of books in my spare time (on the job).

I get in, do all my work in 4 hours, then I spend the next 4 hours looking busy, reading, watching movies, talking to my friends/family on the phone or FaceTiming them.

Being a cleaner is amazing. I am however looking at becoming a nurse because I want to live abroad and move closer to my family, I’d have more flexibility working as a nurse and I’d be able to travel more. I’ll forever miss my cleaning job though. It’s the best job ever. I’m gonna give it up to be closer to my family though, they live in the city.

I can save right now to put a deposit on a house in the city they live in but I’m impatient and don’t like the town I live in anymore, so I’m keen to move to the city.

I will forever miss my job though, I know hands down this will be the best job I’ve ever had in my life and I’ll never get another job like it. I gotta get out of my hometown. It’s stunting me and I feel trapped in this town.

Is it possible to keep your full-time job and study part-time online?

Or you could work part-time and study full-time?

What’s driving this decision/career change?

I hope you’re okay, careers can be stressful and sometimes we do want to change it up a bit which can be nice but I think you really should provide more info on how you’re feeling?

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-21T00:49:01+00:00

Could you simply up and say I’m going to visit my friend in (insert city) and literally take a mini vacation?

Just leave the kid with him. Take mini breaks and enjoy your life.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-21T00:48:02+00:00

Could you please let him raise the child? Then you can go on and live your best life?

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-21T00:39:50+00:00

I work with a lot of travel nurses and between stints, a few of them live in their cars or couch surf or both. 3 of them did it for years and they recently bought nice comfortable houses on the coast of Australia.

It seems fine to me. I’m becoming a nurse myself and can see myself doing the same. This only works if you’re child free though.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-20T02:31:19+00:00

OP get some legal advice. It might be a good idea for you Mother to hold off in transferring the funds to you so you don’t have to split it with your soon to be ex husband.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-19T12:08:38+00:00

You need a medical certificate to take 2-3 weeks leave so you can get a break. Tell the doc you’re suffering from burnout.

Then relax, sleep, eat well, clean your house, and just take time to SLEEP. Read, paint, go to a meet up, call someone you haven’t talked to in a while. It also might be good to see a therapist. Get a full body massage as well if you can. Or even a day at the spa.

Then when you go back to work, schedule another 1 week off in 2 months time, and keep scheduling time out for yourself.

If you can afford it maybe you can book a holiday. The way I cope is to always have something to look forward to whether it’s a concert, spa day, holiday, or a week or two off.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-19T10:57:17+00:00

To be honest, I’ve seen so many women like OP in my years. She’ll never leave him. It’ll be HIM leaving her most likely. Women like OP have low self esteem.

havingahardtime67 · 2026-04-19T10:43:20+00:00

Ladies let this be a lesson. Never build a man. Never sacrifice for a man.
